What we could verify

Registration status

registered

Service area

Texas A&M University System

Listed location

College Station, TX This may be a sponsor, training, or service region, not a work site.

Delivery mode

in person

Who the verified information describes

Texas A&M freshmen or sophomores; additional restrictions apply.

Eligibility

• Current Texas A&M freshman or sophomore status
• Meet the citizenship or immigration-status criteria published by Texas A&M; confirm all restrictions with the university

Compensation

The official application information lists starting pay of $14 per hour, progressing to $16 per hour with experience; confirm current position terms with Texas A&M.

Duration

Designed as a three-year program, with foundational training in year one and areas of focus in years two and three.

Credential

The university describes opportunities to earn industry-recognized certifications such as Network+, Security+ and ITIL; no individual certification outcome is guaranteed.

Next action

What happens next

Review the official CAP and application-information pages, then verify whether a current cohort is accepting applications; the published fall-semester timing does not establish an open intake today.

Fit and tradeoffs

Questions to resolve before applying

• The pathway serves a defined university student population.
• A current open cohort was not verified; the application-information page gives timing relative to the fall semester rather than a current closing date.
